Del Valle Regional Park, part of the East Bay Regional Park District, is a 5,000-acre park set amid oak-studded hills.

Its centerpiece is a lake five miles long. Some 67 miles of trails lead into the hills, and there’s a campground with 150 sites as well as a marina with boat rentals.

Del Valle also is the eastern gateway to the Ohlone Wilderness Trail, 28 miles of scenic backcountry trail.

Dogs must be on leash in developed areas and under voice control and within sight in undeveloped areas.

See the park website for gate hours, parking/entrance and dog fees.
